Hello all. I own a '01 outback with a bad bad head gasket. This is my 1st subaru and I'm looking for DIY info to get'r dun!! So that's my story and I'm stickin' to it.

Welcome to the board! Lots of great folks here to help you out!

Subaru offered a 10 year 100,000 mile extended head gasket warranty on your vehicle, but you're probably past that?

 

there are tons of head gasket threads, do some reading and ask what you need to clarify. bar up above has a "search" function, get used to using it and you'll find out nearly anything you need.

 

for this motor, use Subaru only headgaskets and Subaru requires the coolant conditioner to be added to this model as well. no special tools required.
